EDIT: apparently the head coach of the Virginia Destroyers, wtf. Why is he not wanted in the NFL?

Because he got ran out after a 14-2 record.

They ****** him, basically.

I like Spags but he was promoted above his head, so it seems. I'm not sure Fisher would be what St. Louis needs, though. I like Fisher quite a bit but I don't trust him in consistently making the playoffs or getting to the Super Bowl.

My first choice through and through is going to be Jon Gruden. Especially considering he's a fiery guy and has a man crush on Sam Bradford. I think those two with Josh McDaniels as Offensive Coordinator would be outstanding.

Either way, I want to go more Offensive Minded this way through, or at least an aggressive coach. I would, however like to keep Spagnuolo as Defensive Coordinator if he'd be willing. A team of Josh McDaniels and Steve Spagnuolo as OC and DC would be pretty incredible. Add in someone like Jeff Fisher or Jon Gruden, and then it looks a lot better.

Do you guys think that the Chiefs upsetting the Packers has given Crennel the HC job in KC? He's a great DC, that much is known but i could see Pioli trying to get McDaniels as his OC (i think the Rams clean house) and keep Crennel as his DC.

I think you are living in a dream world if you think Spags will stick around as DC after getting fired.

I don't think Gruden is interested in building a team. In Tampa he inherited a solid team and won a SB with a lot of veterans. After listening to his "analysis" of some young players the last couple of years I have no faith in his talent evaluation skills.

Crennel is 67 or 68 years old and not likely to be hired as HC. He'll stay as DC with maybe McDaniels as HC. Pioli seems tied to NE and that makes McDaniels a very likely hire or possibly, Mangini.

Fisher or Gruden could possibly be the hire but likely both Spags and McDaniels won't be back. The new HC will bring in his own people.
McDaniels probably goes to Kansas City either as HC or OC.

If it's between RAC, McDaniels and Mangini....KEEP RAC.I seriously wanna know why you hate us with these options you give us for HC

I'm just playing the odds, Pioli, who will make the hire is a product of the NE way, he brought in Cassels as your QB and will very likely hire somebody Pioli knows he can get along with, considering the problems he had with Haley, but nothing is written in stone.
Also is the fact that McDaniels trained Cassel into being a starting QB. Maybe he just hires him to be OC but he may well feel that as young as McDaniels is, maybe he wasn't ready for the Bronco's job but is better prepared now.
Only Pioli knows who he wants as HC, anything I suggest, is just thought out possibilities.

He's 67 or 68 years old and isn't a long term answer for KC, therefore I doubt they hire him as HC. Pioli will want a HC who will be around for at least the next decade.

Very few coaches stay with a team that long anymore. He all ready went with the young up and coming HC and it blew up in his face. If McDaniels comes to KC it will be as an OC it's the only way he could sell it to the fans.

I love Coughlin, and loved the hire, but time to clean house. Sorry Tom, you hired Fewell, as well as, other lemons like Hufangel, Tim Lewis, and Bill Sheridan. 4 strikes and you're out.

I agree, it seems like the team just doesn't play hard all the time for him anymore. They have way too many defensive impact players to be this terrible on defense, there is simply no excuse for it and Coughlin should go.

Sorry, just don't see a Crennel hire as HC, the owner hired Pioli to find a strong up and coming HC for his young team, and his experience with Haley, will steer him away from a Fisher or a Gruden IMO and toward somebody he knows he can get along with.

Just my opinion and we'll know soon enough which direction he will take.

You really think they care what fans want. If the new HC wins games and returns to a 10 or 11 win season, the fans will love the guy no matter who they hire.

Romeo is 64, and I think he is in the process of auditioning for the gig. The players really like Romeo, and it might prove to be difficult to not award him the job if they the last 2. McDaniels could be his OC, if not KC would be able to find someone whom he and Pioli can agree on.

I may be the only one, but I think ultimately McDaniels won't get the job or serious consideration for it. Things did not run smoothly in Denver during his time there as HC and it may prove too difficult of a sell to the Chiefs fanbase.

If McDaniels doesn't get the job it won't be because Pioli fears backlash from the fanbase.

When McCarthy was hired most Packer fans were lukewarm on the hire at best.

When Tomlin was hired there were plenty of skeptics as well.

Fans like to think they have the power to influence the organization. I just don't think that is true. And if the GM does give in to pressure from the fanbase he won't last long, because it shows he doesn't have conviction in his own decisions and plan for the organization.

You can't base your hire solely on what the fanbase wants or doesn't want, but you still have to account for them. Last thing you want is a revolt from the fans, especially season ticket holders.

Chiefs fans know very well about the Denver/McDaniels debacle. It's not the same as the Packers or Steelers fanbase being lukewarm on the McCarthy or Tomlin hires. Both were not HC's prior, nor did they have the issues surrounding them that McDaniels gained during his tenure in Denver.
